The most comfortable bed ever! Seamless check in, they just text to say the room was ready and we let ourselves in. Nice location, we didn’t need to use the car all weekend.

I really enjoyed the fact that it seemed modern and the bathroom was awesome. I also love the fact that we had a door to go down the stairs right to the car or walk wherever we wanted to and get there within five minutes!

Alicia United States of America

Very centrally located in downtown Portsmouth, but away from the noise of the bars and restaurants. The room was lovely - comfortable bed, nice furnishings, clean bathroom. There were free snacks and beverages, including tea and coffee, and free toiletries like earplugs.

Great location, quiet area, comfortable bed, great communication from owners and easy self check-in
